Trial date scheduled for family suing Phoenix police

Day’s sister, Nelda Adkins of Coalinga, California, filed a $2.2 million civil lawsuit in Jackson County Circuit Court against the city of Phoenix claiming that the police department was negligent in its investigation, and limited the evidence that the Jackson County District Attorney’s Office had to work with in the homicide case.

The latest development, court records show, is that a five-day trial is scheduled to begin March 21, 2022.
 
@Niner This might explain why we saw the appeal part?

Trial date scheduled for family suing Phoenix police

Homicide suspect Daniel James Burda, 38, who lived with Day and his husband as a handyman, faces charges of manslaughter, criminally negligent homicide, abuse of a corpse, criminal mistreatment and aggravated identity theft. The charges accuse Burda of causing Day’s death, hiding the body and using day’s bank cards.

Burda is in prison on unrelated charges while the DA’s office awaits an Oregon Court of Appeals ruling surrounding the evidence they’ll be able to present to a jury in the homicide trial.
